according to 2 of the first results on duckduckgo, 68% of the world uses the internet
half of the population would be 74% of the internet users.
other than a website saying that 97% of internet users use AI daily(generative AI, not using the broad definition), i could not find any number that would come close to the required 74% that, assuming 100% of generative AI users are using it for that kind of conversations, would make that statistic accurate
Over half the population? Doesn’t honestly sound right at all. If you had said 30% I would’ve still had my doubts. In any case this clearly isn’t a worldwide thing because huge swaths of developing countries would not even have access to an LLM.
I don’t know what you think pasting that link does. I’m familiar with the concept and it doesn’t even slightly prove what you said. It’s barely even related to what you said.
The movie ‘Her’ came out in 2013.
A quick search says that over half the population has had some kind of ‘intimate’ conversation with an AI in 2025.

Maybe half of AI users had an intimate conversation?
That is more believable for sure. Not 100% that I buy it but yeah, plausible at least.
Makes you wonder if they got that figure from a charbot.
I’m extremely skeptical of AI claims considering it’s all a ploy for AI companies to secure more funding
well half of the strangers online are LLMs…
Certainly not true and not relevant regardless

very true and relevant

wow, what a cunt
Great point 👍
Maybe they’re counting all the times people told Alexa/Siri, etc to go fuck themselves?
I tell Google’s this hourly.
Lol if that’s the case then I’m intimate as a motherfucker with LLMs
